Thanksgiving decor

Here's my Thanksgiving/fall mantel!



And, my love affair with The Wood Connection continues... Here is my gobble block I made!



I love fall colors!

A spooktacular Halloween!

I love decorating my mantle during the holidays and Halloween is one of my favorites!



My mom, my sister and I made these cute SPOOKY letters! I went to The Wood Connection for the first time and couldn't believe I had never been there! We painted the letters black then decorated them with glitter and fun Halloween paper.

Girls' Night


My cute friends from the ward came over for a card making night! These two cards come from a card kit by MemoryWorks... it was so fun and easy!

Jackson's birthday card



I made this card for my nephew's first birthday! I used Stampin' Up! stamps and paper from MemoryWorks.

I scream, you scream...

It's time again for the KSL card swap! The theme is thank-you cards and could be any design or theme. Here's mine... nothing says thank you like ice cream!

What's in a name?

I love, love, love this!

My friend inspired me to create a work of art with the letters of my last name. (Thanks Lesli!) The letters are made from things in nature and details in architecture. I spent a good hour at Roberts making sure my name looked just right. You wouldn't believe how many things there are to consider..."are there too many upper-case letter?", "do I have too many letters made out of metal?" Decisions, decisions.

The project is a little pricey but I used a 40% off coupon on the frame and the smaller letters are a steal at $2 each.
When it was all said and done, this is how it turned out!

Be Mine

I spent Superbowl Sunday watching the game, of course... but also making valentines with my mom! Here is one I made, I've sent it to Brent. The paper is from Memory Works. I love the vintage feel.
